Acceptable if you need to visit the villages.

The first impression was they weren't friendly at the front desk. The room was fine, but the whole place seemed like they were trying to appear like an older hotel. Fake, in a Disney kind of way. I also don't like that they asked for my number and immediately started texting me offers.

The locstion was perfect .We could walk to many restaurants and music outside every night if we wanted. My only complaint is I thought we got a great deal with expedia and found it cheaper by $90 a night to book directly with the hotel.
